Here is an example of a theist, I LIKE. I am not a fan of country music, but I love the message in this song. I dont like, I do not like the line in it, where she says we are all God's children. No more than I would like the claim we are all Allah's Children. WHAT I do like is her message of empathy and compassion for the working class and poor. THAT part I do like. That does not mean I am obligated to remain silent when religion is used by politicians to sell fear, or bigotry. It does not preclude me from finding value in my species CAPABILITY to have empathy. I see lots of good in my fellow humans, I just dont agree that is coming from a magic place. I LOVE THIS LADY's message. I don't think she needs a God either, but I do think she is a great lady.
Okay Brian, message received. I respect you but you do come across as a bit of a nutter sometimes. I just felt the need to offer that feedback.
I agree about the singer. I have a thing about strong women. I don't have any use for weak-willed pretty things who want to fan me with a palm frond. The chicks who'll kick me in the balls if I piss them off are the ones who turn me on.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
